When using Smite Evil as a killing blow to 3 or more mobs my run speed will be reset to 0%. This happens regardless if I'm on my mount or not (without my mount my running speed is at 5%, but will still be reset to 0% after using Smite Evil). It will occasionally do this with 2 mobs but I can make it happen all the time with 3 or more. The only way to undo this is to 1) Launch an attack against a mob, 2) Be struck first my a mob, 3) Turn off your mount buff and then reapply it. Until any of those are done my run speed will stay at 0%. Anyone else run into this and have thought...what the heck is going on?
this has been like this for years now. It not just Smite evil its any aoe. If you are not targeting a mob and you kill it you will more often than not have 0% run speed after the encounter. Its annoying but yah just pull another mob and your fine. It happens a lot when i am pling my alts and targeting my alt when i just aoe blow things up.
Yeah, been happening for ages. Clicking sprint twice (toggling it on and off) is the quickest way I have found to reset it back to normal if it happens.
